Monday was a pretty average day. Work was a little busy, home time was good. Tuesday is where it really is at.

In the morning I was taking apart cubicles as my office prepares to move. I kept finding strange things in the desks. There was one that had a bunch of paper bags in it. I swear I never saw anyone bring something like that in here. They are the style of bags that you would get with a large bottle of beer. I even got some push pins in my shoes as they were all over the floor.

I left work real early, 10:30am, to go pick Drake up. He was super excited to see me. We went to the arena for the Griffins annual matinee game. Whomever writes the releases for griffinshockey.com had this to say:

November 11, griffinshockey.com – The AHL’s highest scoring team found a different way to win on Tuesday, riding a dominant defensive effort and a 16-save performance by Daniel Larsson to a 1-0 victory over the Houston Aeros at Van Andel Arena.
A matinee crowd of 7,352 saw the Griffins improve to 6-2-2-1 on the season, 4-1-0-1 on home ice and 6-2 all time in their annual noon game, thanks to Larsson’s first shutout in North America.
Grand Rapids will take aim at its third straight home win this Friday when it hosts its first-ever meeting with the Hartford Wolf Pack at 7 p.m. …

After the game Drake and I headed home for a nap. After he woke up he just sat with me in the lazy boy watching True Blood. Yes I know, I am a very bad father for letting my toddler watch that show with me. There is no need to scold me.

Theresa brought home a new chicken sub to share for dinner. Yum, she even put black olives on my half for me. After dinner Theresa and Drake left to do a little shopping. Right about that time the Red Wings game got underway on VS. I do not like watching games on VS. I will take Mickey Redmond over VS. any day. As far the the Red Wings though, George James Malik says it best:

November 11, Snapshots: Unacceptable – The Detroit Red Wings lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night, and their record in “measuring stick” games is now 0-and-4 (they lost to San Jose, Anaheim, the Penguins, and they bombed their banner-raising opener). The Red Wings had 3-1, 4-2, 5-2, 5-4, and 6-4 leads at various points of the game, but “cutesy” plays resulting in turnovers and an inability to clear the slot and bear down on clearing the puck out of the defensive zone resulted in the vast majority of the Penguins’ goals. …

I myself am also highly disappointed with the Red Wings play last night. I would be more disappointed if I have been a paying ticket holder.

As a footnote, I do have pictures on my camera that I need to get uploaded. Maybe I’ll get that done tonight.
